Pinave 80 Posted April 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 LOL I'm just trying to put up a couple pics of a couple of my dogs. We do hunt coon, groundhog and possum here. The dogs above have only been on possum and coon, but I've gone out with others for groundhog. No claims as to these being the greatest workers or me being an expert. I've not been doing this very long, and neither have those dogs...Foxdropper's observations are correct! No big deal... 4 Quote Link to post
neil cooney 10,416 Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 Fair play Pinave. Always tell the truth about your terriers and that way no one can call you a liar and the only folk your terriers have to satisfy is you and those who have a pest problem. 3 Quote Link to post

Squirrel_Basher 17,100 Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 And scars mean feck all either .. You are correct mate but lack of them says more in smooth coated dogs like that .Scars can come from being worked inncorectly in stop ends etc but the lack of them says they havnt yet met a foe face to face in the time honoured manner of their forefathers .Not still a bit pissy about your Plumber set up are you . 2 Quote Link to post

DavidR 24 Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Pinave, hunt for fun & dont let anyone bash what you do, everyone has there favorite hunts. I have tried everything with my terriers from coyote dens to ratting & can honestly say some of my best times out hunting was with the kids blistering a pile of rats. I regularly take armadillos, not because they are tough, it's because they are a nuisance. But the same people will call when the problem is tougher game also. I would rather see a man working his dog to anything than to go commando on the keyboard with his yorkie. Not everyone has the same level of quality game at their disposal, but that doesnt make you less of a hunter. JMO 6 Quote Link to post

I never said heavily scarred mate ,Dont read what aint there .Ive had dogs with that coat all my life and even rat bites show .Any dog that gets up close will get bitten no matter what your opinion is .By up close im talking 6 inches not a couple of feet away just to clarify .They are young dogs with whole careers ahead so look forward to some action threads from across the pond . Ps heavily scared is a plummer thing i believe lol. 3 Quote Link to post

eastcoast 4,115 Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Well done Pinave for taking the Russell in and giving it a home and a chance do what terriers live for. You seem like a genuine person who loves the dogs and the hunt and without ego. I wouldn't be surprised if the white dog does well for you even if his stamp may not be ideal for the quarry you work, they tend to repay what is given to them. Clever little critters they are. 2 Quote Link to post
